🔍 Googlebot goods for technical SEOs | Latest "Ads" label test update

Plus, query mapping in Shopping campaigns.

May 13, 2019 Good morning, search marketers, greetings from San Francisco! Greg Sterling and I will be attending and reporting from Google Marketing Live tomorrow. Stay tuned. Last week, we heard excitement from SEOs across the board about Google's decision to regularly update its Googlebot crawler to run on the latest version of Chromium. Introduced at I/O last week, Googlebot will now support many more features. This a big deal for JavaScript developers and technical SEOs because it means "there will be fewer critical indexing issues to point out for sites running modern JavaScript," says our Editor At Large, Detlef Johnson, who detailed more of the pros for developers in his latest column. Black is making gains, it seems… I heard from Amalia Fowler at Snap Marketing, who's based in Vancouver, and from Andrea Cruz at Hanapin Marketing, who's based in Boston, that they have both seen the black "Ads" label that Google has been testing. We first reported on EU sightings of the black "Ads" label in March. A couple of things to note: It's placed above the ad copy and the display URL appears alongside it, also in black. And it's very subtle. We've catalogued the history of Google ad labeling in search results, if you're interested in a walk back in time, and we will update our chronology if this black version rolls out. Did you know that the FTC called for search engines to more clearly label ads in 2013? It's hard to believe we're still talking about the Google Ads reporting bug more than a week later, but I don't recall another time that reporting was incorrect for such a long period. Google did confirm on Friday that some store visits and store sales data has been fixed — for April 28 and 29 and May 3 onward. That leaves a gap of April 30 to the early hours of May 2 PT. The data gap for all other reporting is 12:01 a.m. on May 1 to 4 a.m. May 2 (PDT).

Ginny Marvin Editor-In-Chief   Pro Tip   How would the seller of a red t-shirt on Google Shopping keep it off the search results for a blue shirt? "Query-mapping shopping campaign ad groups to relevant searches are how you eliminate the disconnect between what a user searches on Google and what product an advertiser serves on that search," explains Adam Seybold of DEG Digital during his SMX West session in San Jose. "If you, the advertiser, sell both blue and red men's t-shirts then the creation of both a 'blue men's t-shirts' and 'red men's t-shirts' ad group is recommended. From there, negating the keyword 'blue' from the 'red men's t-shirts' ad group and vice versa are how to close the loop and direct traffic properly in your account."

There's been no confirmation by Google. Google caching logic. Gary Illyes from Google talked a bit about how Google caches specific to crawling and indexing. Check it out on Twitter. Google I/O videos. Google archived two presentations from I/O — one on the Google Search: State of the Union and the other on Google Search and JavaScript Sites. Both are worth watching.   The Soapbox   It might not matter, but why not fix it? Even though our community is strong, we keep learning from each other what, ideally, Google should share with us. I'm not even talking about the actual ranking signals, it's more a case of how some of the technical aspects work. One such thing is Google's cache. Many of us used to panic when we saw there was no cached page available, which nowadays is normal. There's a different thing that catches our eyes now – Google showing the last cache date in early April for tens of thousands of websites. While caching doesn't, or at least shouldn't, affect rankings according to Google, it would be really nice to get some reliable-looking data. – Eli Zheleva, owner of Eli Zheleva agency   SMX Update   Learn from the experts at an SMX workshop Planning on attending SMX Advanced in Seattle?
